CNN's Jim Acosta questions President Obama about ISIS: Why can't we take out these bastards?

CNN's Jim Acosta put Barack Obama on the defensive Monday with questions about the President's strategy against ISIS after the latest radical Islamic terror attacks in Paris.

Acosta: "This is an organization that you once described as a JV team that evolved into a now occupied territory in Iraq and Syria and is now able to use that safe haven to launch attacks in other parts of the world. How is that not underestimating their capabilities?

"And how is that contained, quite frankly? And I think a lot of Americans have this frustration that they see that the United States has the greatest military in the world, it has the backing of nearly every other country in the world when it comes to taking on ISIS.

"I guess the question is, and if you'll forgive the language, is why can't we take out these bastards?"

Obama: "Well, Jim, I just spent the last three questions answering that very question, so I don't know what more you want me to add."
